Front office summit sets direction
PAOK held a major meeting at the club's offices with nearly every key figure present. Sporting director Léo Matos, technical director Vieirinha, owner Ivan Savvidis, and his children Giorgos and Nikos were all there, along with legal director Maria Goncharova (1). The gathering signals that the new leadership structure is now fully operational and ready to shape the summer ahead.
Lucescu developments brewing
Reports from athletiko.gr point to imminent developments around manager Răzvan Lucescu (2). No specifics yet on whether this means a contract extension, a departure, or a broader reshuffle, but the timing right after the front-office summit is hard to ignore. With the squad yet to see any summer signings and a third-place finish still stinging, the coaching situation is now the biggest question mark.
Fan reactions
Fans are buzzing about Kiril Despodov's future after a supporter who works at a restaurant Despodov visited shared a conversation. The winger reportedly told him he has another year on his contract and intends to stay, brushing off transfer rumours. Meanwhile, a separate thread on the new kit design has fans weighing in with mixed opinions on the look. See the full Despodov thread for more.
